Special Note:

Due to low turnout the past few years the contest portion of our Thumb-Picking weekend is on a one year hiatus. While we take this year off, rest assured the contest will be back in 2014 as part of a new and improved Thumb-Picking Weekend complete with workshops and master classes from our visiting artists.
